For information about the get command, see the iDRAC RACADM Command Line Interface Reference Guide available at
dell.com/idracmanuals.
The conguration le is rst parsed to verify that valid group and object names are present and the basic syntax rules are followed.
Errors are agged with the line number where the error was detected, and a message explains the problem. The entire le is parsed
for correctness and all errors are displayed. Write commands are not transmitted to iDRAC if an error is found in the le. You must
correct all errors before using the le to congure iDRAC.
CAUTION: Use the racresetcfg command to reset the database and the iDRAC NIC settings to the default settings
and remove all users and user congurations. While the root user is available, other user settings are also reset to the
default settings.
Disabling access to modify iDRAC conguration settings on host
system
You can disable access to modify the iDRAC conguration settings through Local RACADM or iDRAC Settings utility. However, you
can view these conguration settings. To do this:
1. In iDRAC Web interface, go to Overview → iDRAC Settings → Network → Services.
2. Select one or both of the following:
• Disable the iDRAC Local Conguration using iDRAC Settings — Disables access to modify the conguration settings in
iDRAC Settings utility.
• Disable the iDRAC Local Conguration using RACADM — Disables access to modify the conguration settings in Local
RACADM.
3. Click Apply.
NOTE: If access is disabled, you cannot use Server Administrator or IPMITool to perform iDRAC congurations.
However, you can use IPMI Over LAN.
